The Tacoma Ledger of October 7 speaks thus highly of "Bright Eyes,"' the musical comedy which will be at the Grand Friday night, October 27: Joseph M..Gaites "begs to offer," i the program says, "Cecil Lean and Florence Holbrook In 'Bright Eyes,' " Xov 'beg' sounds quite humble, In fact almost apologetic, and It Is really un necessary.. No apology is needed. !r. Gaites has no need for Buch ex cessive humility. He might, instead, be proud, for If the truth be told, "Bright Eyes" is far superior to many things that have been "offered" to the public lately in the guise of musical comedy. "Bright Eyes' has a slight plot, at least one that is discernable through out the three acts, and It has a round dozen musical numbers that are all above the average. The music is by Karl Hoschna, who Is als5 responsible for "Madame Sherry." While the success of "Madame Sherry" was the wonder of the last season, Mr. Hoschna might better boast of his score to "Bright Eyes." It is more tuneful than "Sherry, ' and his song "Bright Eeyes Is more appealing in Us melody than "Every Little Movement." "Bright Eyes" begins mildly, the setting at the opening of the first act being largely responsible for the lack of enthusiasm. The finale, however, gives a hint of better things to come, and the second act fulfills the prom lse. The third act Is even beter than the second, and It turns away the au dience thoroughly satisfied with the entertainment. It has been a long time since two more agreeable young people have en tertalned the musical comedy devo tees of Tacoma than Cecil Lean and Florence Holbrook. They are -responsible for much of the good fun to be found in "Bright Eyes," and last night they Introduced a number of songs that proved to be hits of the most emphatic order. Of the songs by Mr. Lean and Miss Holbrook. 'Bright Eeyes," "Cheer Up Honey," "Mrs. Casey' and "He's a Fan, Fan. Fan," scored tremend ously, also their unusually clever 'chatter" song, which might have been repeated several times. As neither Mr.- Lean nor Miss Holbrook has been seen in Tacoma before and owing to the unexpected entrance each makes in the first act, they did not receive the enthusiastic recep tion usually accorded stars, but be fore the first act was more than half finished, they were established in the lasting good graces of the audi ence. Of the members of the supporting company, Tacomans will be glad to welcome back Freddie Nice, whose dancing in "The Gingerbread Man" is a pleasant recollection. Freddie did not lay aside his eccentric steps when he said goodbye to "John Dough" and In "Bright Eyes" his dancing is one of the best features of the performance. He danced last night until breathless, and still the audience asked for more. Mr. Nice also has several good songs. He also has a neat little dancing mate in Ce cilia Renard, who plays the role of a German maid. The piece is prettily staged, and has a large and well dressed chorus, whose singing needs no apology. No, it is unnecessary for Mr. Gaites to "beg" to offer "Bright Eyes." No one who saw the per formance last night will accuse him of excessive nerve If he comes out flat-footed about it and "presents" "Bright Eyes" with all the assurance of a manager who has much less to "offer." The performance will be repeated tonight. o Snved His Mothers Life.

P, LANDS IS NOW AT ISSUE In the government suit to enforce the forfeiture of the Oregon land grants by the Oregon & California and the Southern Pacific railroads to which the Union Trust Company, of New York, is a party defendant, the latter yesterday filed Its answer in the United States circuit court at Portland. It is a volumnious docu ment of more than 60 typewrftten pages and after acknowledging its STATE NEWS. Two men were suffocated at the bottom of an S2-foot well near May ger yesterday. One had gone down to work, the other being at the wind lass. Hearing nothing from the man below, Raizo, who was doing the hoisting, feared something had hap pened to his partner, and descending to aid him, was himself suffocated. The old Murphy building, a land mark of Laurelhurst addition to Portland, burned Tuesday. Right Reverend Robert L.

What could furnish stronger evi dence of the efficiency of any remedy than the test of time? Thousands of people testify that Doan's Kidney Pills cure permanently.

Tbey now confirm their testimonials. They say time has completed the test A. J. Wood, 733 N. Front St., Sa lem, Ore., says: "About two months ago I began to sutler from kidney and bladder trouble. The kidney se cretions were too frequent and pain ful in passage and caused me much annoyance. I had often heard Doan's Kidney Pills highly recommended and thinking they might prove of benefit. I procured a box at Dr. Stone's Drug Store. I can say that the use of one box rid me of every symptom of kid ney complaint. I strongly advise oth er kidney sufferers, to give this rem edy a trial. The above statement was given January 30, 1906, and was confirmed on November 20, 1909, by Mr. Wood. He said: "The statement I gave in 1906, publicly recommending Doan's Kidney Pills, was correct. This rem edy cured me of kidney trouble and I have had no return attack." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.
